I have a cracked and out of round brake drum. Does the final drive slide right out of differential to expose the drum. Will I be able to pull the old drum and drive a new one without further dissassembly of the final drive.

The final drive is heavy, be carefull with it. After removing it it may be easier to take the axle out and be able to press or have pressed the drum off and another pressed on. I would want the manual to do all this. You need to know how to adjust the brakes for them to work right, and you need to know how to adjust the bearing if you take the axle out. Do you have the brakes out yet? That can be a job if the pin at the bottom that holds them in is rusted in. There have been a lot of tips for getting it out, search the archives for these.

The only time I changed one of these, I blocked up the rear end and removed the wheel/tire. Then after removing the brake shoes, I unbolted the axle housing from the differential assembly. The axle shaft, brake drum and axle housing came out as a subassembly. Then after fruitlessly trying to pull the cracked drum, I ended up taking it off in pieces...it is shrunk on, I think. A proper puller would be best, but one with the beef and enough reach is probably hard to find. The new one needs to be heated up and put on a cold shaft.
Caution, don't hammer on the axle shaft because there are bearings inside the final drive that won't like it very much.
